• Universitat Jaume I (UJI), Castellón, Spain, and,
• Universidade Nova de Lisboa (UNL), Instituto Superior de Estatística e Gestão de Informação (ISEGI), Lisboa, Portugal.
The Masters Program has been selected within the Erasmus Mundus Program of the European Commission (2007-0064/001 FRAME MUNB123). The following grants are open for applications (the exact numbers have still to be confirmed):

The students’ application will be evaluated by an equal number of representatives of the three partner universities. Evaluation criteria are:
•Bachelor degree (grade)
•English language skills
•High-level academic achievements
•Expertise in GI application areas
•Professional or other experience in application areas that can benefit from GI technologies
•Motivation for the study program
•Social and multi-cultural competencies
•Formal aspects of application
Target scholars
Scholars are expected to conduct research in the context of ongoing research projects and teach within the study program of the hosting universities. Please check the homepage or contact the program coordinator at each university regarding their research and teaching priorities. Academic achievements and research and teaching experience in the field of GI Science are essential.
The application procedure for scholars is the same as for students, apart from additional telephone interviews via Skype, to be performed by the receiving partner with pre-selected applicants. Selection criteria are:
•Bachelor degree (grade)
•Master degree/doctorate (grade)
•Master degree/doctorate (relevance of topic)
